Instant Pot Swedish Meatballs Recipe–My son’s favorite lunch this year. He is a huge fan of Ikea, and this copycat version comes really close, and best yet, you can have this in the comfort of your own home.
This made for such an easy dinner last night, perfect. The meatballs are cooked to perfection with the Instant Pot’s help, and of course, the gravy makes the entire meal.
If you have not used the Instant Pot for making a meal, you are so missing out. I truly love a good “dump meal,” especially during the week when I try to juggle work and the kids and their activities. Enter the Instant Pot–a game-changer.
INSTANT POT SWEDISH MEATBALLS
My grandmother was actually from Sweden, so I have a great basis for her own Swedish Meatball Recipe, and I remember fondly sitting in her kitchen eating them. Today, I swapped out her homemade meatballs and made a copycat version using frozen meatballs. Easy and delicious. But if you want a great homemade Swedish meatball, feel free to replace them.
The directions are easy, and the ingredients you can purchase ahead of time and put in your pantry for a quick and easy meal when you have no idea what to make for dinner that night! I love those meals. So, much better than the drive-thru.

I loved how easy this was, but it burned in my instant pot. By the time the burn notice came, it was all cooked through, and it tasted great! But I would prefer not to have to clean out the burned mess! Any advice?
Just make sure that you scrap the bottom of the pan. I never had this problem, but if you leave any part of the sauce unstirred, you will get this BURN notice.
Made this and cooked it for 15 minutes bc I added time for higher altitude. I live at 4500ft. It turned out delicious. Thank you for the recipe!
Oh I also used 13oz of whole wheat noodles. And 26oz of bag of swedish meatballs.
